Season 5 of "The Good Wife" will feature the former Lockhart/Gardner co-workers locked in battle.

"What we've been saying to the actors and what we'll happily say to you is this season is really going to start at 90 miles an hour, because next year it is going to be civil war in the firm," Robert King told The Daily Beast.

"I will say they have reached out to see if I’m available for a particular episode ahead of time," Preston said. "If I’m available then they will write for me, but it’s not any kind of formal offer yet. I haven’t seen any scripts. I think they’re just now getting back to work. So it would be for something that we would shoot a couple of months from now."

"The Good Wife" Season 5 premieres Sunday, September 29 at 9 p.m. ET on CBS.
